I suspect, notifying players of any policies which may lead to their
exclusion, or loss of the service they have paid for (and the refund state
on this), in advance, perhaps requiring them to "sign" it in some way - my
ISP operate a similar scheme. You have to sign the "charter of conduct"
thing before they'll activate your account.

If they've just been knocked off, having not been warned they could be for
what they did, possibly, it's probably a legal grey area, and kinda
unprecidented. If you advice them in advance like above, they haven't a
leg to stand on as far as I know.

Heh. Probably. :)
